  5. Maybe Wee Willie Winkie would share his scooter with the Gingerbread Man?

    As for Georgie Porgie, that training class should be taught by Miss Allard.

  6. My mistake, that wicked substitute in Miss Nelson is Missing is Miss Swamp, not Miss Allard. It's Viola Swamp that Georgie Porgie needs!

  7. Yes, Miss Swamp will whip him into shape! p.s. My apologies to Georgie Porgie for misspelling his name.

  10. Meg, You're not brain dead, you're doing serious writing and we're spending our time being silly!

    Eileen, I bet the cow that jumped over the moon could use some GPS guidance too.

  11. I'm with Meg on this one (a bout of stomach flu will do that to you!)

    What a whimsical post! Love it, and the comments :)

  12. Sorry about the stomach flu, Robin, perhaps you need to unwrap a bundle of energy? Bad time of the year to be sick! Hope you're better soon.
